The way I understand it, the manager would be able to bat their best or hottest hitter in the lineup in lieu of someone who isn't performing well. Say using the clean up batter again in the 9 hole even if he just batted in the 8th inning. I could be wrong but that is how it reads to me.


Yeah, well, I always heard there were three kinds of suns in Kansas: sunshine, sunflowers, and sons-of-bitches.
